The diamond will also be presented in Los Angeles, Hong Kong, London and Doha before it makes its final trip to New York to be auctioned off to the highest bidder. Considered 'perfect' due to its flawless clarity and entirely devoid of impurities it is a Type IIa diamond, which only make up 1-2% of all natural diamonds. This specific gem is amongst only five of its kind in the world and is looking to reach bids of up to $25 million.
